Boardroom

Graduation day at Sport Huancayo

4 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Squad

A row about effort at Sport Huancayo

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Nahuel Luján was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match

Sporting Cristal take the points off Sport Huancayo

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Angel Zamudio

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market

Sport Huancayo promote Sergio Pena from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Sergio Pena has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Andre Aquino steps up from the Sport Huancayo academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Andre Aquino has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

The dugout

Pedro Carrillo answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑2, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

In brief
